Locales and currency.

I'm running gnucash 1.6.8 under Debian sid.

If I run my system with no locale or with the POSIX locale, then
it uses "GBP" as the currency symbol for pounds.

However, if I run using the en_GB locale as set by

   LANG=en_GB
   LC_ALL=en_GB

Then the currency symbol used is $

Also when I change locales, the default currency for all my
saved reports changes from GBP to USD?

Does anybody else run under the en_GB locale OK?
